Life

Saint Pudens was a preacher of God's Word as well as an esteemed member of the Roman Senate. The saint took Apostle Peter and Apostle Paul into his home when they were nearby. When the apostles dwelled in his home, Christians gathered there to hear their words. St. Pudens' house was eventually converted into a church with the name "Pastorum."

In Scripture, he is mentioned in 2 Timothy 4:21: "Do thy diligence to come before winter. Eubulus greeteth thee, and Pudens, and Linus, and Claudia, and all the brethren."
